Forecasters warn of possible G2 geomagnetic storms as a colossal coronal hole sends solar wind racing our way.

The sun is on the verge of a significant event: a magnetic field reversal. What causes this switch in polarity, and is it dangerous for anything on Earth? Let's take a deep dive into the phenomenon of ...

Astronomers have achieved a major breakthrough in solar physics by successfully producing detailed maps of the Sun's coronal magnetic fields. This milestone promises to enhance our understanding of ...

In the late 1980s, scientists realized they could understand the interior properties of the sun by observing the sound waves ...

A giant S-shape structure, around 10 times wider than Earth, recently appeared in the center of the sun, moments before our ...

Researchers have released the most accurate and consistent map of the magnetic fields in the Sun’s corona – its tenuous but incredibly hot atmosphere. The magnetic fields play a role in the heating of ...

Most places on Earth have seasons because our planet is on a tilt as it orbits the sun. But our star also has its own version ...

Earth is at the mercy of the Sun’s changing temperament. Solar storms are revving up, which makes a new exploration of the Sun’s activity more relevant than ever. In new research published Thursday in ...

A study led by University of Iowa Associate Professor David Miles will study how the sun impacts the Earth’s magnetic field using a NASA satellite that will launch later this month. The study dubbed ...

Researchers simulated the sun’s polar vortices using computer models, which suggest the vortices are likely driven by powerful magnetic fields. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn ...

The Earth’s magnetic field, a silent guardian against harmful solar radiation, has been behaving strangely in recent years.
